What can I say about this place other than it was spectacular. The property was so beautiful, the house was amazing and Melody, our host, truly felt like an old long lost friend when we meet her. There were 7 of us staying here and I didn't know how it would go but the house was perfect and people could truly spread out. Everyone had such a great time and the hot tub was a hoot! Would recommend to anyone and hopefully we will make it back soon.

Stayed at the DOME for a with family (7of us) for a family wedding in the area. The architecture of the structure was even more impressive and fascinating in person & the book of how it was built was read by all! Impeccably clean! The CLEANEST short-term rental I've ever been to (and I have been to many!). Amazing amenities, thoughtful extras, personal note of welcome and a homemade treat - lovely! Comfortable beds and again, so very clean! We didn't hot tub, just short on time but we did walk about the grounds some and saw many birds of interest and some morning coffee with many deer in sight! Melody was a warm and gracious host - the personal touch of meeting in person and escorting to the property was appreciated! HIGHLY recommended for your next Chillicothe retreat, getaway or passing through adventure!

The Dome was everything and more than we ever expected. The house was clean and well stocked with towels, kitchen items etc. We enjoyed playing air hockey, watching a movie, and relaxing. The most unexpected part was the blueprints and photograph book of building pictures. This is a must stay.

We were there for 4 nights, absolutely no issues with anything. As my wife put it The Dome was the best place we have stayed in, even our daughter-n-law did't have any complaints. Plenty of room and the quiet location was enjoyable.Hopefully it will be available the next time we are up in Chillicothe Ohio. By the way Melody was a fantastic host, even bringing over great cookies and brownies.Mark B.
